Student notebook pages are a required, critical component of this program and are specifically designed to correspond to assignments given in the curriculum guide. The lesson, part, and subject are noted at the bottom of each page so that notebook pages can be easily matched with assignments.

The Paths of Settlement unit study program (Grades 4-6) teaches students about the settling of our nation as examined through the lives of leaders who made a difference by standing for their beliefs. It is comprised of six units that cover the period immediately before the Revolutionary War through the Civil War and up to the Turn of the Century. Each of the six units covers six weeks; together, all six books comprise a one-year study. The primary science focus involves Earth Science (geology, weather, land forms, climate) and the impact of these factors on settlement. Basic economics and international relationships are also addressed. Activities in Settlement include period crafts, cooking, watercolor painting, state studies, and making a wind gauge.

Pages are reproducible for personal and household use only. Loose-leaf, three-hole-punched pages.

Please note that additional books are required to use this curriculum. For a list of the required resources for each unit, please see the Book List PDF link above.
